When I called your company they told me it was tight fit to get cord in and to use white grease. Well after being an electrician for so many years I couldn't believe it. I filed down the rivet that holds down the ground strap and it fit. Very bad design.

Cons:Difficult To Use, The rivet that holds ground strap sticks out to far ., Used before never had this problem.Bad design!

Power Inlet Box

I had purchased the generac 50 amp power inlet box and was able to set it up without any problems.

The generator power connection fit right into the box without any hassle.

Preferred Design

I connect my portable generator to this power outlet in the event of a power outage. I like the location of the plug on the bottom, so there is no chance of water getting inside.

I preferred this design over others, especially the ones with the front facing outlets. It was very easy to install and is well built.

Generac 6341 - 50-amp (twistlock) Non-metallic Power Inlet Box W

Generac 6341 - 50-Amp (Twistlock) Non-Metallic Power Inlet Box w/ Flip Lid Receptacle too small to accept 50A cable.
This is my second Power Inlet Box. The first box would not accept the 50A cable until I accidentally broke the ground bar anchor pin.I received a new complete box assembly and had the same experience. Measurements of the receptacle and cable:
Receptacle: 48.0 mm
Cable Connector: 50.0 mm

Appears to be a manufacturing issue with the Generac 6341 Power Box.2 mm interference prevents the twistlock insertion.
The ground strap end needs to be recessed & anchored in order for this unit to function.

Generac 6341 - 50-amp (twistlock) Non-metallic Power Inlet Box W

Was not happy, this box is poorly designed, to small to fit #6 wires and not strong enough to be plugging and un-plugging the cord. Feels like it's going to break. The ground rivet in the twistlock receptacle sticks out to far preventing the insertion of the cord and needed to be filed. Trying to force the cord in actually tore out the rivet. A new box was sent out but same situation with the rivet. The upside down design is inconvenient and the box needs to be mounted high to be able to see where your plugging in the cord.

Cheap

This is very cheaply made. The electric socket is held by small screws in plastic. It will NOT last repeated uses. I had to replace the screws which came with it with bolts and nuts.

Richard,

We are sorry to hear that you needed replace the hardware for this box. If you need any further parts or hardware feel free to contact us at 800-710-7499. If you have issue with the construction of the product please contact Generac directly with those concerns. Generac can be reached at 888-436-3722.

The box is acceptable but the space is rather small to work with when using #6-4 cable. Also, it's difficult to push the wired receptacle back into the box and line up the 3 mounting screws for it and the weather cap.

Power Inlet Box

Box is too small by half to be able to work with the gauge wire. Had to remove plug and buy an 8"x8" box, cut a hole, attach plug.

Pros:Price, Light Weight, High Quality

Cons:Difficult To Use
